I have a G5 with 2.5 GB of RAM and it is a very sweet machine. I use a Nikon 
Super Coolscan 4000 with it, and it works beautifully. (I use Nikon Scan; 
don't like VueScan very much). I haven't yet found a thing about it that I 
don't like.

I'm toying with selling my Baby Speed Graphic gear and using the money to 
buy more RAM for the thing. 2.5GB runs out pretty fast when you're racing to 
meet a publication deadline and have Photoshop, InDesign, Dreamweaver, and 
Fireworks all open at once. The G5 will take up to 8GB, and I don't think 
that's excessive for the kind of work I do with it.
